The Word Became Flesh

Today I begin reading and studying the final Gospel of Jesus Christ written by John. I have been waiting patiently for this book for some time. If these words do not stir your soul, then perhaps your heart is no longer beating. In the Bible, you will see the living word…

John 1:1-5
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

The words are so full of life. They encapsulate all of what Jesus came to earth to show us. He is telling us that He has always been with us, and that He will never leave us. That He is in all of us

To have the God of all, love us the way that He does, blows my mind. I have done nothing to deserve it. Nothing to earn it. As a matter of fact, I step on His love for me every day. Yet, His love never fails and it never gives up on me. So I run to Him. I run to Him in my happiness. I run to Him in my sorrow. I run to Him always and in every instance.

He watches me fall. He picks me up and brushes off the dirt from my hands and knees, tells me He loves me, and sends me out again. He is my Heavenly Father, my Savior, my most loyal and loving Friend, my Creator, my Shepard, and He has me always in His hands.

The last line of the verse 5 says, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” The beauty in this line is that darkness never will never overcome light. Ever. The light of God is in us all, and shines brighter than the sun. Today, walk in His light and in His authority. #JesusSaves
